Nearer My God to Thee
Bill Anderson · Singing His Praise (w. Jan Howard) [Decca] [1972]
(Noell Mason)
(Jan)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee
And though it be a cross that raises me
Bill)
Still all my songs shall be
Nearer, my God to Thee.
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee
(Jan)
Though like a wanderer the sun come down
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone
(Bill)
Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God to Thee
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee.

(Jan)
There let the way appear, steps into heaven
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given
(Bill)
Angels to beckon me,
Nearer my God to Thee
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee...
(Jan)
